Volkswagen (converted) CONVERSION

374 aircraft on the U.S. register carry a Volkswagen (converted) CONVERSION engine, rated at about 36 horsepower. The Story 7 is the model most often fitted with it (2 aircraft). The aircraft carrying it were built between 1965 and 2018.

The FAA records engines by code, usually at the level of a series ("O-320 series") rather than the exact variant; this page gathers every FAA code that reads as Volkswagen (converted) CONVERSION. FAA spelling: CONVERSION.
